Our CEO
We provide children and youth with a safe, positive space between the realities of home life and the pressures of school – a place where they can play, create, connect, and grow into their best selves.
Over the decades, we’ve adapted to meet the needs of our city’s youth. From woodworking and boxing in the 1920s, to today where we are serving thousands young people with FREE, life-changing programs across 31 neighbourhoods.
Our four Clubhouses, satellite location, and Camp Smitty – BGC Ottawa’s incredible overnight camp – are places where children and teens feel empowered, included, and part of a community that rises together.
Join us on May 15 as we celebrate the impact of community support and the strength of young people, while raising funds to continue building brighter futures for those who need it most.
Show your support for BGC Ottawa today and stand with us as we lift our community, together.
I look forward to seeing you there!
